Ok, fine. Need for potassium should be optimized to avoid / limit insulin spike.
When taking carbs, B1 B2 B3 + biotin should be brought from food or supplement.
Not necessary every day. -
@LucH Okay, you are saying that basically I need to make a diet + supplement plan that covers all basic nutrients without irritation so the gut can heal without further complications correct?
Sorry for being slow on the uptake, I am still dealing with the kind of low energy brainfog so I was only thinking about the immediate next steps.

@pittybitty
Yes. Well sumerized.
I understand your need for concentration and Time to deal with the info. -
Okay a bit different topic. Had an argument. Adrenaline spikes. Obviously not optimal. But sometimes it is involuntary, and I would prefer to make the most out of the energy as long as I have it instead of it just being evaporated as heat and angry thoughts. For example right now it will probably be the fuel for writing that diet plan.
What can I do to ensure that the adrenaline does as little damage as possible? Eat large amounts of sugar so that less protein needs to be cannibalized to raise the blood sugar? Protein to offset the loss? High B vitamins to ensure sugar metabolism works without a issue?

- Never eat a piece of meat without a minimum carbs, to avoid an insulin spike. A fruit or a salad with tomato is right / enough.
- When you stress you secrete adrenalin and then cortisol. 2 hours to recuperate a normal metabolism (with glycolysis).
When I encounter fucking people or any nightmare, I take 300 mg Mg bisglycinate to recover easily. A bowl of bone broth (collagen is rich in glycine) if Mg is not in available.
You can't avoid a bad issue if you take off easily when you're disturbed / upset. keep breathing (stomach must move) and go for a short walk. 3 to 4' is enough to go downwards.
When I get anxious or get stomach cramps, I stop coffee for one day and I take one caps L-theanine. Or I drink a glass of wine with my spaghetti

@LucH Thank you!

Okay it's now quite obvious that the digestive issue is SIBO.
- It happens with any type of starch, even the ones that should always be fully digested before they reach the big intestine (e.g. potatoes and rice)
- It happens very soon after eating, before anything can even reach the large intestine.
- So it must happen in the small intestine, it must happen because of starch and since I don't feel ill from eating (just highly stressed) it is not leaky gut.
Last two days I have no eaten any starch and I am doing pretty good. Tired a lot, but in a way that allows me to relax, which would be impossible if cortisol was elevated. Appetite, which is also a good sign, mostly for starchy food but I will have to get over that. Nimble enough to do figurative drawing, which was not possible while Serotonin was elevated.
I have a rough idea what I need to eat; keeping calories from fat below 20% to stay in gluccose burning mode. (Mostly yoghurt, fruit toppings, milk, grape juice, cheese, maybe some soup.) Plan to use garlic as antibiotic.
Supplementation wise I keep it simple with Thiamine, Thyroid, Zink and a 2€ drug store vitamin B complex.

OK over the principle if you think there is overgrowth.
When you eat starch there are two kinds of fiber: Soluble and insoluble fibers. We can't digest the second one. If you don't go to feces 2x a day, there is stagnation in the second part of the colon: food / residue for bacteria.
Mind the way you're going to attack the beast: need a plan or you'll make a selection.
Rather more difficult then afterwards.
I see you're not quite convinced (problem in the first part of the intestine, you think. Maybe / Possible). But you intent to take garlic to kill bacteria, which is going to be effective particularly in the second part of the colon (stagnation near the rear output).
The speed of the transit depends on the macro-elements: Slower with a mix LPG when there is fat (L). Quicker if there is only carbs.
I'll deal with delayed softgels with essential oil. See Now Foods. 2 kinds (origano / mint) (with adjuvants like fennel or ginger).
Get informed on the healing crisis too, how to manage.
